Big Brother contestant Pete Stephenson is excited about finally being up for eviction.

Pete has proved one of the show's most popular housemates and, until now, was the only person not to be nominated.

But this week Big Brother punished mouthy new housemate Jayne, for talking repeatedly about the outside world, by putting up every housemate for eviction, except her.

Last night Pete, the 24-year-old frontman of Brighton band Daddy Fantastic, was called to the Diary Room but said this week's mass nomination had not caused major tension.

He said: "I haven't been up yet, so now I can have the experience. I'm not that scared but a bit excited.

"No one seems bothered that much. 'Cos we're all up they're not worried."

Later, Aisleyne and Pete snuggled up together in bed and discussed his conversational skills.

Aisleyne complained: "I always have to dig to get any answers in a conversation with you."

Pete replied: "Yeah, it's bad isn't it.

"I got told by someone that it's because I use the left-hand side of my brain.

"It's why, conversation-wise, I'm not very good."
